proximity alerts

Jeff Kuhn 4 years ago updated by Manfred 3 years ago 1

It would be great to get a proximity alert of a distance to a cache.    Like vibrating or audible whether going to a selected cache or just driving around and randomly alerted to a  nearby cache.    Especially useful when you are in a new town on business or vacation.

Filter on attributes

Ralf 5 years ago updated by Brian Lang 3 years ago 17

Attributes are important info about caches and it should be possible to filter caches based on these. Both positive and negative attributes should be considered. And it should also be possible to filter based on their presence or not.

1. Show all caches with "tree climbing" attribute

2. Show all caches with "not tree climbing" attribute

3. Show all caches without "tree climbing" attribute

4. Show all caches without "not tree climbing" attribute

filters would need complete rework in terms of design... attribute list is crazy long and would not work well with design as it is.

one can imagine endless ideas....


lets call all attributes of a cache A1...An and the rest are Am....Az

A1 present AND NOT Az

A1 OR A2 present

A1 AND A2 present


generally filtering is a basic task and as such I could filter anything you can dream of.

Bigger challenge is to present that filter in a UI so that the user can configure it....


That being said: I really want to add it...

Would be nice to see, which Map is in use.

Maybe with a dot in front or something like that.

Combine Live map and Offline map

magma1447 5 years ago updated by Jürgen Kimmel (Lemmi1de) 5 years ago 5

I don't see any real reason (besides technical) for the user to have one Offline map and one Live map. In C:geo you choose a database and then you can turn on Live on the "offline map" as well. The offline stored geocaches have a visual indicator of this.

I would like a similar behavior in GCDroid, using one map only. Most of the time when traveling we work from an offline list/database produced from Project-GC (a GPX). In many cases logging one of those geocaches requires quite a walk. It would then be nice to on the same map, load whatever geocaches we actually are walking past, so that we can log these on our way. Today it's a lot of flipping between maps.

I therefore suggest that the "Live-button" is added to the Offline maps as well. I would prefer it with three states actually:

* Live enabled (loading caches, just as Live map works)

* Live disabled (not loading caches, just as Live map works when button is disabled)

* Live caches hidden (don't show the live caches, to reduce the noice, they are still kept in the live sqlite database)

Child waypoints of all (or selected) caches in DB to be shown on the map.

Kristian Nandraský 4 years ago updated by DOC-WHO 2 years ago 1

There are caches with stages placed over a large area (e.g. GC892EG). It would be great if I could see these stages on the map once I am caching in the region to visit these stages (and not to forget to visit them and take a picture there). I imagine a switch that would enable all waypoints of the caches in the database to be shown in the map in one time. Would you find it useful?

Extended support for Adventure Labs.

Pleu 2 years ago 0

Hello, 
There seem to have been some changes in what the official API shows and what it is allowed to show. Cachly recently informed their users that they are showing all stages for non-sequential Adventure labs and the first step for sequential labs, could this be added in GCDroid too? 

I also noticed that the API seems to have an option to "exclude completed labs from the calling user", that would mean that when I include Adventure Labs in my search I wouldn't have to spend a bunch of time marking the completed ones as "fake-founds" any more, they just wouldn't show up on my maps. If possible I would like if this was added, could of course be a setting/option for those that like crowded maps. :)

Offline Karte

m karohl 5 years ago updated by Jürgen Kimmel (Lemmi1de) 5 years ago 2

Gibt es die Möglichkeit das man auch mehrere Offlinekarten gleichzeitig aktivieren kann?

Wenn man unterwegs zwischen zwei Bundesländern ist brauch man dann ja nicht immer die Karten zuwechseln.

Add and remove caches from database from the map

magma1447 5 years ago updated by GCDroid Support 5 years ago 3

From the maps, I would like to be able to both add and remove geocaches from the offline lists.

Add to list could be accessible both from the Live map but also on the Offline map if the users wants to add a specific geocache to another DB. Remove is probably only usable from Offline maps.

Typical use case is that a group of geocachers are working from a pre-built list of geocaches to log. Then during the trip, they find something interesting on the map and decide to add it into their planning. They then want to add it into the list.

A use case for removing could be that one hadn't realized a geocache needed boat for example, and since they don't have a boat in this case, they want to remove it from the list so they don't accidentally drive there after forgetting that it was boat required.
